What is the shiny rate for Shroomish in Pokémon Go?
According to old research by the now-defunct website The Silph Road (via the Wayback Machine ), the shiny level of a Pokemon on a typical day is about one in 500. Shroomish is not a confirmed Pokemon that receives a “permanent boost” (meaning, that it is a rare spawn and thus gets an increased shiny stat).
What can I do to attract more shiny Pokemon?
Not much, unfortunately. It seems to be a coincidence. Catch rates for Shiny Pokemon are set by developer Niantic, and usually only increase during special events like Community Days or Safari Zones, or in Legendary Raids. There are no consumables that increase the rates of shiny Pokemon.
Where can I find a list of available shiny Pokemon?
LeekDuck maintains a list of currently available Shiny Pokemon. This is a useful visual aid that shows what all the shiny Pokemon in existence look like.
